Join us for an exciting Camporee with a Survior twist! Teams will explore, lead, and achieve as they navigate challenges that test their skills, teamwork, and Scout spirit. The day will be filled with many challenges where Scouts will compete to show their knowledge, teamwork, leadership, and problem-solving abilities. Do you have what it takes to work together and come out on top?
Given the theme of the Survivor Camporee, details of specific activities will not be provided in advance. There will be 8 stations, and Scouts should come prepared to tackle the challenges as a “tribe.” Troops will be camping at designated sites and will be responsible for preparing their own meals during the event.
Scout Cost: $20
Adult Cost: $10
